Brookfield Aromatic (No. 1)

(2.35)
A pleasantly mild, very aromatic blend of Virginias, burleys and Java tobaccos with a hint of vanilla. An exceptional smoke.

Brookfield - Aromatic.

Well, well, well, this is a turn up for the books! From the name, I'd expected something overly false: floral, perfumey, and acidic. What I got instead was a superb smoke!

The tobacco's very tightly packed inside the pouch, to me it felt like it was in one of those containers they use in the pouches of blends such as St Bruno Flake, or Walnut Flake; there isn't one, it's just been compacted fiercely! The nose from said pouch was the first thing to suggest to me this wasn't going to be an overly floral or perfume-like smoke; of course, I could always have read the description, but I'm a touch lazy LOL! Even though it has been tightly compacted, the tobacco's not too damp once it's been ruffled apart to fill with.

The smoke I get has a crystal clear vanilla note, albeit it's not too sticky. It's about a perfect weight to be enjoyed without ruining things. There's no problem with the temperature of the smoke, even if it's chugged hard it still seems fairly cool and it doesn't bite.... AT ALL. The nicotine feels quite mild to me, but it's a vanilla aromatic so what else would I expect?!

I feel this is a top notch blend:

Highly recommended.

Four stars for Aromatic fans who like the Danish or Dutch type. Two and a half stars for those who don't like Aromatic tobacs.
